What is is that you want? If I am to guess I would think you may be looking to get an outline of your building on your site plan? If that is the case, select just outside of your building and the entire exterior perimeter will highlight. Then go the to the attached image and make an exterior room polyline which you can place on a layer ("Building Outline Dashed") or whatever you might want to call it. Copy and paste at will into your site plan or any other plan view.

What the room divider now does very well is to allow you to have a division of spaces without an ugly break in the flooring material. All hail the room divider.

The invisible wall is now called the Room Divider Wall.

I never use that Living area label but I just did a test and it appears that it does not reduce by the interior wall footage. I started adding interior walls and at one point the square footage jumped up one foot then down again.

This is 10 passes (10:49) with Jintu's settings. I then tweaked the image properties as shown for some extra pop. Edit Looking at Jintu's, I should have not touched the properties.

"Do you even know what post a plan means? :D" Scott, it is like you are trying to make yourself angry.

Check these settings in Jintu's file. These are some of the most critical to pay attention to.

If each room is using the same material you will only need to adjust the one material for all rooms to change.

I think the real problem here is that you are detailing in Solid Works.

Here is how to change the properties of your floor material (or any material).

Thanks Johnny, good to know.

@ arcb, now that you have some good solutions for the digital world, I am with Sherry on this one. Are you really going to hinge that door on the glass panel with no vertical support?

I think he just did share it?

Possibly, with this condition, you will need to fake the lower wall with a poly line solid and keep the upper wall that can be a railing wall as I placed in your plan. I realize this is frustrating since you are transitioning from other software. I do not have time today but I could possibly do an online meeting with you late tonight after the sun goes down in California. I am headed out of my office now to suck some saw dust but if you can meet late (your time) maybe around 9 or 10 pm in Michigan we could solve this pretty quickly. Feel free to call me or email 831-747-4718 alan@lehmandesignstudio.com

The layer they are going to once blocked is probably locked in the view where you can't select it.

Here you go.

look about 10 threads down at a similar question regarding cable railing on stairs.

There is a frequent poster on the forum who wrote a book. I do not have the book but I have heard great things about it and his is very step by step through a project from what I understand.

Look in a perspective camera view of the stairs from floor 1. You will see the railing wall that shows with cable railing infill. If you click with your mouse in plan view at this location it will probably select the stairs first. Hit the tab key to get to the wall below (in selection order).

I adjusted the wall at the base of the stairs. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/essajznv3kmgtu9/AAB-CpnJixE_vk1dshQGQU3Ea?dl=0

You made the balusters into cables. You need to make a railing wall at the stairs to have cables on the stairs. This railing wall will sit on top of the stairs in order to get the "Follow Stairs" to work Path for the cables Then I adjusted my stair railing to only have a top rail because the top rail of the cable panel does not look correct cable rail example.zip

I don't see a way to do it in one step. Looks like 4 steps. 1. snap a polyline rectangle to the layout border 2. concentrically resize the polyline 3. grab one side (still in concentric move mode) and snap to the resized polyline guide 4. repeat the do that again for the next 11 pages

Even with the stucco as a layer in the wall DBX you can dimension to the cmu location.

Oops. I misread the post. I just wanted to make is look pretty.
